In loving memory ~
Carolyn Marie Meade (nee Peterson) passed peacefully on November 18, 2023, at the age of 81 years.
Carolyn is survived by her sisters Barbara Zek, Mary Pakaluko and Roberta Fitzgerald; her husband, Mike Meade; her sons Jason (Brandi) Carr and Chris (Jill) Carr, her children through marriage Michael (Shaeesta) Meade, Krystal Meade and Larissa Meade, her eight grandchildren, and one great-grandchild.
Carolyn was an active and passionate member of Alcoholics Anonymous beginning in Powell River, and later in life in Parksville/Qualicum Beach. Her long-term sobriety was a testament to her commitment to the AA program with 32 continuous years in recovery. But for the grace of God.
She will forever be remembered for the things that she loved to do, as well as for the love that she spread to others through her kind gestures. While she may not be with us physically today, her gentle spirit will remain in our hearts forever.
A celebration of life will be held in Spring 2024. The family welcomes donations to the local SPCA as an expression of sympathy instead of flowers.
LOVE AND SERVICE
I want everyone to know the past 32 years of sobriety have provided me a great life. God is good and has been my great director. He has blessed me with peace, love, respect of myself and others.
Please do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Accept everyone for who they are. Let God be the judge: not you.
God Grant me the Serenity to accept the things I can not change, Courage to change the things I can, and the Wisdom to know the difference.
